Those suggestions are good (bench/chair dips and push-ups) - but make sure with the push-ups you modify them such that your elbows are at your side to focus more on your triceps and less on your chest. Regular push-ups will work too... but will work your chest more.
You can also do a modified cable pull with a resistance band.
Resistance bands are not very expensive... and their like a bungee... so they store easily too - not like weights.
You can put one end of the resistance band under a door and close it tight. Then grab the other end of the band and turn your back to the door. Put the cable in both hands behind your head, with your elbows by your ears, pointing to the ceiling. Get into a lunge position to lean forward away from the door, and while keeping your elbows by your ears... straighten your arms.
You can also do the same motion with just one arm at a time.
With the same band, you can face the door, get on your hands and knees, and do tricep kickbacks using the band for resistance that way too.
Just make sure the cable is very secure... if it snaps out, it can hurt - a LOT

sit on the edge of your chair with your arms straight and hands on both sides of you and with your hands still on the chair scoot your butt off of the chair and bend your arms A LITTLE lol notttt a lot, and hold for a few seconds then straighten your arms and scoot back on the chair. keep your legs out as far as you can and if possible, straighten them
